Mya Hampton
Paralegal
As a paralegal at Olivia Adams Law Firm, I’m proud to bring my experience in criminal law to a team that cares about its clients. I’m passionate about supporting our attorney and walking alongside our clients through every step of the legal process with professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail.
A Kentucky native, I have deep roots in the community and a love for serving Hopkinsville and the surrounding areas. When I’m not in the office, you’ll usually find me coaching cheerleading, spoiling my fur babies, or spending quality time with my family.
I’m grateful to be part of the Olivia Adams Law Firm team and honored to contribute to our shared commitment to excellent legal representation and exceptional client care.
